INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING COFFEE

1.Before using coffeemaker for the first time, clean it thoroughly. Refer to Cleaning Instructions.

2.Always use coffeemaker on a dry level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge. Be sure hands are dry.

3.With basket and stem removed, fill coffeemaker with COLD water to desired cup level. Marks on inside of coffeemaker show cup levels. Do not fill past maximum cup level.

4.Place stem into heating unit well in bottom of coffeemaker, then put basket on stem. Add electric perk or regular grind coffee to basket using chart below for amount to use depending on cup level. Spread grounds evenly in basket. Use standard measuring cups to measure grounds. Do not let any grounds fall into stem opening. Do not use “Drip” or finely ground coffee as basket can flood. The amount of ground coffee recommended will make mild-strength coffee which most people prefer. The amount of coffee used can be adjusted to suit your preference.

5.Place cover on the coffeemaker and turn to secure in place inside handles. Note arrows on cover for correct turning. To reduce coffee spills, especially if coffee maker is tipped over, make sure cover has been turned clockwise until the cover is completely secured into the handle slots. NOTE: While moving an appliance containing hot liquids is not recommended, if you must move the coffeemaker, extreme caution should be used as the cover only temporarily reduces coffee from spilling if coffeemaker is tipped over.

6.Plug cord into a 120 volt AC grounded electric outlet ONLY. turn switch “ON” for models 13500 and 33600.

7.Coffeemaker will stop perking automatically (each cup requires no longer than 1 minute brewing time). Coffee is ready when light in base glows. Coffee will remain serving temperature as long as coffeemaker is plugged in (and switch is “ON”). Before serving turn cover to remove basket and stem. Using a hot pad, remove coffee basket, and stem. If coffee basket and stem are not removed, bitter oils from the extracted grounds will drip into coffee. Replace cover making sure it is completely secured into the handle slots.
